Finding and Using Library Resources

This tutorial demonstrates the searching functionality for EBSCO ebooks as well as how to read ebooks online.

Most EBSCO ebooks can be downloaded. This will enable you to temporarily 'check out' the book, and view it offline on various devices.

Important to know:

• You must have a MyEBSCO account to download ebooks. You will be prompted to sign-in or create your account during the download process.
• EBSCO ebooks can be checked out for up to 5 days.
• Find your checked out books under My Folder in EBSCO.
• When the checkout period is over, the ebook will disappear from your device.
• Most EBSCO ebooks can be used by only one person at a time.
• If a book is checked out by another user, you will be prompted to place a hold. By placing the hold, you will receive an email when the book becomes available again. At that point you will have 12 hours to download/access the ebook, before it goes to the next person in the queue.
